International Buyer at KITEA GROUP who drove SLIM 4 transformation across procurement, inventory, and demand planning.
What I'm looking for
At KITEA GROUP, I managed international sourcing and supplier evaluation, negotiating contracts, pricing, and delivery terms to support cost efficiency and supply continuity.
I drove the SLIM 4 transformation across procurement, inventory management, and demand planning. It enabled optimized inventory levels, stronger purchasing decisions, improved forecast accuracy, and full supply chain visibility.
Previously, at Carrefour, I coordinated supply activities across stores, platforms, and procurement while optimizing stock through sales analysis and forecasting. At GLOBAL CARGO LEADER, I oversaw import logistics for Europe, Asia, and Africa flows and developed comparative dashboards to support purchasing and financial decisions.
My experience also includes supplier sourcing and purchasing at MARJANE HOLDING, CAPEX procurement support at OCP SA, and logistics operations at CMA CGM. I’m motivated by connecting the dots in complex global supply chains and seeing the tangible results of efficient purchasing decisions.
